What is the Fastly MCP server?

Fastly MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. A Pulumi package for creating and managing fastly cloud resources.. Based on terraform-provider-fastly: version v4.

What you get

The Fastly resource provider for Pulumi lets you manage Fastly resources in your cloud programs. To use this package, please install the Pulumi CLI first.

What the assistant can call

Once Fastly is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

  • fastly — apiKey - (Required) This is the API key. It must be provided, but it can also be sourced from the FASTLY_API_KEY

Configuration and credentials

You will need 2 environment variables: FASTLY_API_KEY, FASTLY_API_URL. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

Setting it up

Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @pulumi/fastly on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.

Choosing this one

This sits in the cloud and infrastructure group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Fastly's toolset — fastly — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by pulumi-bot; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Fastly's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Before you rely on it

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the fastly mcp server does with a few real requests.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Fastly to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 1 tool (fastly) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Fastly directly.
